I Think I Might Just Suck At This Game - Advice Please

[Carroters]

Try to focus less on results for now and more on noting improvments in your game, writing down and applying new things you've leanred etc. It can take a while sometimes for everything you've been learning to click into place so just keep grinding and really making sure you're thinking about every decision, doing lots of HH reviews and documenting the lessons learned from these. The results will follow eventually but learning should be your primary focus.

How about you start an OP here where you can document everything you learn both from your own review and from your coach.

Variance can be a bitch and remember that even if you're playing better your results wont necessarily show this right away. Avoid playing tilted and see it as one massive long haul learning curve.

Good luck.

That is great advice.. I agree that it takes time for everything to click and make sense. I'm definitely learning that! I may be starting such a blog type thread here.

I have to agree completely that results aren't the best way to measure improvement short term.

Nice to hear from you.. I am planning to contact you in a couple weeks.. I hear you may be able to help a guy with his 6-max game? My current coach focuses on full ring. So that's where I'm at right now.. but I like both.
